how healthy is it for boxers to be fighting at weights they are clearly not naturally supposed to be? which boxers fight at their naturl weights?

the only boxers who fight at their natural weight are the heavyweights.

The heavyweights hit harder but they are seldom to die from brain trauma because they have fluids in the brain, lower weight fighters who cut massive amounts of weight tend to die from brain trauma from punches because they drain almost half of the water from their body making weight that the brain doesnt properly rehydrate quick enough and when their is not enough fluids the brain will swell especially from trauma of punches.

dog you serious? have you ever met guy slike bernard hopkins or oscar? those guys are no way near their weight they walk around 2 weight classes higher.

Oscar is no way a welter or a 154 pounder the guy is like 175, hopkins is like 190 but fought at 160. The bones and frame size is also a key factor.

I remember seeing Erike Morales in person and the guy weighs 200 pounds between fights but would cut all the way down to 130!

Fernando vargas was spitting blood to make weight, the guy walks around 225 pounds and he fights at 154.

These dudes be cheating, and Pacman is cheating by not having an ounce of fat he is def taking roids him and mosley got the same type of body all muscle no fat.

I highly doubt that.....MMA guys typically cut up to 15 pounds, simply because they don't have enough weight classes......but i HIGHLY doubt a pro boxer will cut more than 10 pounds for a fight.....and if they do...then the 10 other pounds will be fat and/or musclefrom the 6 -12 months of training

and then it really evens itself out anyway. If you cut that much weight in a short period, it's all water, and that's gonna negatively affect their cardio...plus they are gonna be cramping up. That's why they have so many weight classes in boxing, so they don't have to do that

Mexicans hate D.L.H because he didnt become mexican till halfway in his career..

He didnt start coming out to Mariachi music and wearing Mexican trunks till it became profitable for him to do so..

also, he beat the shit out of Mexican Jesus J.C.C when J.C.C was 5 years past his prime, then destroyed em again in the rematch....that fight should've never fucking happened, there was like a 13 year difference and J.C.C was gassed.

lol damn fuck that paul williams dude is unfair! he is exciting as fuck to watch but dude is gonna get knocked out cold against a legit 160 168 pounder dude needs to put some weight on. lookin like starvin marvin.

How a dude gonna be 6 feet 4 and weight 147? dude is funny too he lied about his height he said he was only 6 feet 1 and then some dude interviewing him said how you gonna be 6 feet 1 when im 6 feet 2 and you bigger then me?

you have a point you would think by having so many weight classes under 135 it would help reduce deaths and all that other stuff cause the weights are so close..but it doesnt because Fighters are such cheaters now they want to dominate a lower weight instead of moving up.

And thats why they have so many DEATHS in Boxing under 135 pound category.
This boxer named joan guzman he fought at 122 pounds and when he doesn't fight he goes all the way up to 180! and he has to cut to 155 then taper the water off.

when fighters cut that much weight in a short time like you said they cRAMP up! because of lack of water...and guess what dude the brain fluids get reduced as well.

thats why so many boxers die in the lower weights. They want the size advantage so bad that the brain doesnt have enough time to rehydrate with fluids and causes swelling easier..
